The lawsuit Wilding v Democratic National Committee Services Corporation has been appealed to the Eleventh Circuit. This is the case, filed in 2016, by Bernie Sanders supporters who had donated money to the Democratic Party, and who feel the party defrauded them because its rules said it would be neutral in the presidential nomination battle, yet in reality national party leaders seem to not been neutral. The case is now 17-14194.

We have witnessed another senseless tragedy: the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Desperate cries for gun control almost immediately surfaced. While the motivation for such pleas cannot be questioned, their timing and impact can be.

Update October 3, 2017: The full transcript has been released for the oral argument in Gill v. Whitford. Check out the transcript below.

The Supreme Court heard oral argument Tuesday in Gill v. Whitford, a case out of Wisconsin that challenges the state's gerrymandered legislative districts.

Her Facebook page has become a remembrance place for those who knew her and loved her.

Irvine ran a family-law and criminal-defense practice near El Cortez hotel.

She was a graduate from  USD and Cal Western.

The voting method is extremely important and affects all parts of the election from who wins, how seriously candidates’ ideas are taken, and who you see on your ballot. Specifically, the choose-one plurality voting method that we use now is really bad.

How often do you think about your signature? Probably not often. It becomes so routine that it is a matter of muscle memory for most people.

The numbers are in for Nevada's first month of legal retail marijuana sales.

Although marijuana became legal in the state of Colorado, marijuana trafficking is not legal.

Recently, more than 60 people were charged with illegally growing and distributing more than 4,000 pounds of marijuana within the state of Colorado and across state lines.

The Denver Police Department responded to a complaint that eventually led them to uncover one of the biggest drug busts in Colorado by leading them to unlicensed marijuana growers in warehouses and residences throughout the Denver Metro area. The operation was called “Operation Toker Poker.”

The City of San Diego has a lot to consider when it comes to its energy future.

If Community Choice Aggregation or CCAs is passed by the City Council in January, it would essentially empower those elected officials to purchase energy for the city, not SDG&E.

SDG&E would still maintain their infrastructure, still conduct meter tests and readings, but the government would make those important price point decisions.
